Re: how do I disable my keyboard and mouse but not my touch
xinput disable "AT Translated Set 2 keyboard" should™ disable the keyboard, I guess "Synaptics TM3207-001" is your touchpad while "Raydium Corporation Raydium Touch System" is a touch screen, but I don't see a mouse in that list.
Ensure you can re-enable things w/o a keyboard ;-)
